Is there a way to redirect youtube links to NewPipe or similar either systemwide or at last when the link opens in Firefox?

I understand the free apps need ads, but I'd rather not watch that video than watching TWO video ads.

    Ymmv depending on OS and version. I run grapheneOS and mine is in Settings -> Apps -> Defaut Apps -> Opening Links. Scroll down and select NewPipe and enable Open Supported Links. Depending on OS you may be able to set behavior per domain, e.g. open Youtube links in NewPipe but not SoundCloud or Bandcamp links.

      Thans. This appears to work when I disable the open links in the official Youtube app, then activate the domains in NewPipe. On official Samsung Android 13.

      Thanks a lot.
